Help with duplication trigger
Dear all, I`m trying to create a code which will prevent duplication in my org. THis code will run if lead is being created/updated and contact is already exisiting. If contact is already exisitng, lead will give an error. what I want to do is, if creator of this lead (user) is "Internal Login", trigger should not be applied and lead should be allowed to create. When I add "If" argument**, it is not working. It is either allowing everyone to create or no one to create dupe. I need a condition where only "Internal User" should be allowed to create dupes.. Can someone please help?
trigger AvoidDupe on Lead (before insert, before update) { for (Lead myLead : Trigger.new) { String Fullname; *//adding "if " argument below is not helping. it is either allowing everyone to create or no one to create dupe. I need a condition where only "Internal User" should be allowed to create dupes. if (myLead.CreatedById == '00580000003a935') { if (myLead.Email != null) { List<Contact> dupes = [SELECT Id, FirstName, LastName,Name FROM Contact WHERE Email = :myLead.Email]; if (dupes.size() > 0) { FullName = dupes[0].Name; mylead.addError('ERROR: There is already an identical record with same email. <a href=\'https://cs1.salesforce.com/' + dupes[0].Id + '\'> Contact - '+ FullName + '</a>', false); } } } } }
If I understand correctly, you need to allow duplicates for Salesforce Platform licence. navigate to following link to see what each value means in the UserType field.

Hi Chetan,
You can use "UserType" field on Users and put the condition in your code for "Standard" users which are internal.
Hope this helps!

"Internal User" is one of our standard users with Salesforce license. Only "Internal User" should be allowed to create duplcicates. Rest all users, shouldnt be allowed. Does that make sense?

UserInfo.getUserId()" to get user id. :)
